Warriors of the Waterfront

John King writes about the waterfront, development, and Prop B in SFGate,

Much of the northeast waterfront has been transformed in the past 20 years, buoyed in large part by the city's excessive wealth. Industrial remnants such as Pier 70, though, will require huge private investment - not to "preserve a unique and vibrant vital waterfront," as Prop. B touts itself to voters, but so a dilapidated shipyard can be reclaimed in a way that's accessible and inviting to the public at large.
